It looks like the Xiaomi Note 2 will be here later than expected. Initially believed to arrive this week, a new report now claims the device was delayed to August.

Renowned analyst Pan Jiutang is claiming that the phablet won't be released until next month. This is also what Xiaomi co-founder Liwan Jiang said regarding the launch date for its high-end offerings.

Not too long ago, he said that premium Xiaomi releases will all be unveiled in August. Such can be true with the Xiaomi Note 2, which is deemed as one of the China-based tech company's top-tier products.

The rumored specs of the Xiaomi Note 2 imply that it is a high-end device with the newly-released Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 processor under its hood and a whopping 6GB of RAM backing this powerful new chip up.

This amount of RAM will come with either 64GB of storage or 128GB. But Xiaomi Note 2 will also have a model for those who don't want to go that big as it is expected to come with a 32GB version with 4GB of RAM in tow.

Apart from Xiaomi Note 2, the company is also rumored to put out a Xiaomi Note 2 Pro version along with it. Most of the specs will be the same.

The Xiaomi Note 2 Pro is reportedly sporting a 5.5-inch full HD AMOLED display. A Snapdragon 821 chipset is expected to run the whole show.

However, there will only be two variants for this version. One comes with 4GB of RAM and 64GB storage. The other one is bigger at 6GB of RAM and 128GB storage space.

On the imaging side, the Xiaomi Note 2 Pro will purportedly boast a 12MP rear-facing camera with f/2.0 aperture and four-axis optical image stabilization or OIS.

A fingerprint scanner should be present as well with a massive 3,700mAh battery to keep the lights on. The same camera combos and features could be expected in the Xiaomi Note 2.
